We finished higher than them last season, what of it?

It is a transition period now, but it should not have been. Virtually same team that did well last season until we ran out of steam. Sure we lost O'Hare, but before his injury EMC was starting to fire. Tatsu injuries have not helped.
Sometimes losing your best player weirdly helps the team, but Sheaf on form has been one of our best players for some time, which is why he is the first name on the team sheet when fit (and apparently not fully fit).
I agree, confidence and continuity are what missing.
Disagree about passion, you do not have the success we have had the last seven years without passion.
Last night, we really did show the grit to allow us to play football. Win the battle and you are halfway there. Props to Lampard for that.

Agreed. We showed plenty of grit and passion against Norwich as well, it’s just the injury time overshadowed it

At the moment they look light years ahead of us

Dare I say 55 year old Barry Bannan made that happen almost single handed

Ben sheaf is clear when he plays

 

[Hobo]

Looked like we just froze. I was amazed how poor we were.

That happens in football and then good managers sort it out.

 

[Hobo]

Leaving Rovers just 12 months after joining …. Despite some people insisting he should never have been allowed to leave Cov.

He was a great player for us, but we off loaded at the right time. He is shot and he has been garbage at Blackburn. Most of their fans didn't want his contract extended.

 

[Deity]

Haven’t heard this. Where you seen it?

There isn’t a rumour.

a few bed setters making stuff up but no rumours.

Was gonna say I only heard Steve Round be mentioned by football insider

 

[Northeast sky blue]

Sunderland promotion chasing , or us which would you go for .

To be fair, unfortunately, Sunderland look a lot better than us, I would struggle to see where any our would improve them

 

[long way home]

Samuel Rak-Sakyi, Harvey Vale, James McConnell, S Thomas, Tyler Morton, Lewis O Brian, H Toffolo and Liam Lindsay are names i have seen and would be happy with 2 or 3 of these being brought in. Another player i liked but not sure if he could get back to the level is Matty Longstaff if injuries are behind him would be worth a look.

 

[JSL]

Harvey Vale looks a good prospect but what are thoughts on maybe Jonjo Shelvey who has just been released?

they do not look light years ahead of us at all, what a daft comment

Off to Burnley if not wrong.

 

[JSL]

That in itself must mean he's good

Oh if he wasn’t off and we could afford the wages would be worth a shout, I agree

 

[David O'Day]

Where would Vale fit in? He plays on the wing or as a lwb. He can cover if needed lb but he's far from a natural there.

Wages better spent in positions we need

Only way I could see it working would be a long term plan to keep the three at the back which I don’t see or having him as back up for Mason Clark. For if Wright goes in the summer

He’s been a midfielder in the past hasn’t he? I think he was meant to have done well as a LWB at Bristol Rovers a few years back but don’t know what he’s done since.

 

[SkyBlueStallion_89]

I've seen that Vale can play LB, LW as a attacking midfielder and even a striker

Proper Swiss arm knife if true

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

suggests to me he’s mainly a 10 or LWB/LB but can play almost everywhere maybe not well but he can

 

[Nick]

lol so he wants to go to the US but no one wants him?

Basically he’s turned us down? Sounds like we dodged a bullet mentality wise but not great people would literally rather hold out for something in the states than play under Lampard. Wasn’t the entire point of Lampard his “pull”?

Are you still making things up? It's fucking weird, every fucking thread.

Would imagine of the MLS he must of heard something to wait.

Would be a great bench option. Pretty much every role covered on the left hand side

I would love him at the City, good player and would come because of Lampard, think Rak-Saki is still coming and a experienced CB to finish off, would still want a RB of course but don't think we will get all of that

What’s fucking weird is you following me around every thread going on about how weird I am for discussing Coventry City on your Coventry City forum.

I haven't followed you anywhere.

I am pointing out how weird you are for making things up on every thread. Weird scenarios you make up.

What have I made up? I’m literally commenting on Alan Nixons “story” that Holding wants to go to the US but doesn’t have an offer and has turned us down for that.

Maybe I should have called him a pedo then you’d have been all over with the likes.

[David O'Day]

Vale can play in lots of positions yes, but he's only really good as an attacking left sided player.

Money and squad place much better used on a position we really need

Would like him as well especially if free like the rumors are.

Also since you here- 5-3-2 possession manager and we get a win against Sheffield just saying

Hopefully he’ll be the da silva replacement and we can get rid asap
